    Thank you for the response. Delayed or not it is still very much appreciated. I have now done the classes and still need the pre op and post classes and the support group. Balboa has changed their policy though and those are no longer drop in but now you have to schedule an appt to attend. Before I was able to schedule, they kept cancelling them previously due to lack of people attending. I am still in the process of doing the sleep study, I still need to schedule the psych consult and after that I am good to go. I completely understand you about having difficulty being able to attend all these required dates due to childcare. I also work FT and that doesn't make it any easier. How long did it take from the moment that Okayed you to the day they were able to get scheduled on? I'm excited and am hoping it isn't too long. I dream of being able to wear shorts and tank tops during the extreme summer heat we get here and having my self esteem back. Thanks for any responses. I am excited for you in your success

    Thank you for responding! I am excited to start this process but am a little confused on the process. Been heavy all my life and now I am starting to physically feel it. I already had my consult, went to the mandatory info session. Now I need psych consult, sleep study, and to attend their classes. I have spoken to nutrition but they confused me. I know I have to take class #1, class #2, attend a support meeting and healthy lifestyle classes. Are those classes once a week? Once a month? I need to know because I have to arrange daycare for my little ones. Congratulations!!! How was your surgery? post? How much have you lost? I am so excited that I am all over the place...sorry if I am not making any sense

    I know it has been a while since this first post started but has anyone gone through the process at Balboa? I just started it and need to do my classes and some of the other pre-reqs but am curious of personal experiences. Also, I need to clarify if we need to see our nutritionist once a week? There is so much to get done so I am trying to clear everything up and get some personal experiences. Thanks
